  • Fair Trade Music

    Thanks for being friends with Fair Trade Music PDX! As you know, we're still gathering intelligence about how venues in town are treating their bands. So far, the story's not too good, but a few of them looks like they might be willing to man up and pay musicians some kind of guaranteed minimum wage - the kind that is the law for dishwashers, janitors, bartenders, and every other service worker in the club. Help us identify those venues! If you haven't already, please take a few minutes to complete our online survey. It’s completely anonymous, incredibly simple, and is essential to moving Fair Trade Music into the next level of venue implementation.

    The survey is at: http://fairtrademusicpdx.org/?q=node/275

    It’s a cliché because it’s true – WE CAN’T DO THIS WITHOUT YOUR HELP!

    Thanks, and Solidarity,
    Fair Trade Music PDX

Me

I'm a bass player in Portland, Oregon. It rains. I play bass.

I already have a career but see no reason why my avocation can't be on par with that in a professional sense. I approach music from the perspective of the art and business aspects having near equal value. When the best of both come together, everyone benefits.

As a bass player, I try to focus on groove, time and taste. I love songs first and foremost so my goal is to enhance the inherent quality of the tune. Obviously, I'm in awe of virtuosity and am constantly striving to improve my chops. There have been some great chops presented in popular music over the years and I think we need more of that. Helloooo! Paul McCartney?

Quoting Napoleon Info

I play in a band called Quoting Napoleon. We write songs drawing from numerous genres but maintain a cohesive sound that I guess I'd describe as "acoustic rock".

Inspiration

Don't question authority, ignore it.

I'm mostly interested in networking with other musicians, talking about music and sharing ideas or philosophies.
